The ghost of you
Lives next door
Every touch
Every kiss
Every fight
Every moment
Still lingers
Do these memories
Follow you too?
Or did you leave them all here
As another way for me to suffer?
You left your problems behind
When you said goodbye and not another word after
Probably hoping I’d blame myself for your mistakes
So you could live guilt-free
I leave the graveyard
Of dead remembrance for my own sake
Because I know if not now then later
The consequences of your actions
Will haunt you all the same
I no longer need to mourn the loss
Of something that was already gone
